Although Chang Sui'an really wanted to know what his sister said in the letter, he still retained a great deal of awe for Cui Jing, a top leader——

So he could only shake his head: "No, no..."

Cui Jing nodded: "Now that the patrol is over, go back to rest early and come with me to inspect the border defense tomorrow."

Chang Sui An agreed, holding the letter in his hand, and exited the camp.

In the tent for the first time, an oil lamp was burning quietly next to the small table where official matters were piled. The warm light reflected by the flame fell on the young man's slender fingers, which opened and unfolded the letter unhurriedly, simply.

The actions seem to have some kind of orderly rules, and this rules is based on the cherishment of not being impatient, lest the letter be damaged.

The light of the oil lamp also reflected on the young man's lowered eyebrows. His eyebrows were naturally superior, and the originally dark and deep eyebrows were now coated with a faint golden light by the lamp. This scene made the young man look as if he was not even in the horizon.

It is transformed by the real rays of light, and it is like a proud work that has been carefully dyed with countless preferences by a master of calligraphy and painting, so it can be so accurately given to him the ultimate beauty that the world can imagine.

The letter was written in a familiar handwriting, almost filling up the entire letter paper.

She must have been in a high mood when she wrote the letter. Although there was nothing too important to mention, it can be seen that she was full of interest and full of desire to share.

She will always be prosperous. With Jiang Du under her control, he will definitely regain his prosperity as soon as possible, Cui Jing thought after seeing the words.

And he was honored that even though he was thousands of miles away at this moment, he could still be the one with whom she shared this flourishing heart.

In the letter, she also told him that when he wrote again in the future, if he had time, he could write more. She expected that even if there were more words, the horse delivering the letter would be able to carry it.

Cui Jing curled up the corners of his mouth as if he had received some kind of permission.

She seemed to be intentionally setting an "example," showing him how to write a long enough letter and write whatever came to mind. She did not follow the strict format of a letter. She had already signed it, but added two lines of text.

The small characters that show the crowd - [Tonight, fireworks are going off in the city of Jiangdu. I knew about this thing in the Dengtai Tower last year. This thing is very good. I am very happy about it. I am happy because it is actually grand and beautiful, and even more happy about it.

Although it is made of gunpowder, it is used for celebration rather than just causing casualties in war]

Finally, I add another sentence - [One more thing is that the fireworks tonight are all donated by Princess Xuan'an, and I haven't spent half of the money]

Cui Jing couldn't help but smile, then seemed to think of something, and read the letter from beginning to end again. He not only read the letter, but also counted the number of words in the letter.

Including the signature, there are a total of 367 words.

Cui Jing found a piece of white paper and wrote a line of words.

At this moment, Vice General Yu came to the account to report official business. Cui Jing put down his pen and listened carefully. All he heard were routine reports, and nothing unusual happened.

After Vice General Yu finished his report, Cui Jing pushed the folded paper with a line of writing on it to the edge of the cases, and pressed half of the copper talisman on the paper.

Vice General Yu stepped forward and picked it up.

"You go back to the capital during this trip and help me with another private matter." Cui Jing said: "Go back to Xuance's army in the capital, use this bronze talisman to open my private treasury, take the full amount, and secretly send it to the governor's office in Jiangdu.

"

Upon hearing this, Vice General Yu subconsciously opened the piece of paper and was slightly stunned when he saw the number written on it.

"Grand Governor, what are you doing..." Vice Admiral Yu seemed a little unscrupulous: "Aren't you planning to hire someone?"

"..." Cui Jing quietly raised her eyes and stared at him.

Vice General Yu gave a complicated smile: "What I mean is... you are alone now, and you must keep enough for your daughter-in-law."

Although they could not become the adopted sons of the Grand Governor, they were already part of the same family as the Grand Governor, so why shouldn't they help worry about it?

Cui Jing obviously didn't care about this. He just laid out another piece of letter paper, smoothed the paper with a paperweight, and said: "It's rare that she will need it, so go ahead and do it."

Lieutenant General Yu couldn't help but tremble and grit his teeth after hearing this. After reading a letter, he wished he could give away all his family wealth, so he gave it away and said, "It's rare that she will be able to use it." Listen carefully, sir.

The governor even used the word "rare"!

At this moment, Lieutenant General Yu suddenly had an ominous intuition. If Mrs. Chang needed the Governor to die, the Governor would probably treat his own life with the mentality of "it is rare for her to use it"?

Forgive him for his short-sightedness... What is the difference between this and being possessed?

Lieutenant General Yu could not understand this state of affairs, so he could only pretend to bless and respect him.

Vice General Yu put away the piece of paper and the copper charm and showed a smile: "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, my subordinates will handle this matter properly."

When I just retreated, I heard a soldier report through the curtain: "Grand Governor, Doctor Cao is here."

With Cui Jing's approval, Doctor Cao entered the tent and saluted.

Cui Jing had been whipped in Xingyang before. When he returned to the north, his injury had not fully recovered. Doctor Cao, who had been responsible for treating Cui Jing's injury, took this opportunity to recommend himself again and again, and finally followed him to the north as he wished.

Cui Jing's injuries are now mostly healed, but Doctor Cao is obsessed with further treating her, so he has to check Cui Jing's pulse every half a day.

Cui Jing himself didn't care much about this, but after he was exterminated, his subordinates treated him with great care, and it was not uncommon for him to take care of his health.

Seeing Doctor Cao come in at this moment, Vice General Yu was not in a hurry to leave. He was ordered by the Governor to return to Beijing on errands and would leave soon. Before leaving, he wanted to hear about the Governor's recovery.

Doctor Cao, who was diagnosing Cui Jing's pulse, raised his eyebrows and said with surprise, "This is the happy pulse."

Cui Jing: "?"

Vice General Yu stared: "What kind of pulse do you like?"

This statement is undoubtedly absurd, but Lieutenant General Yu couldn't help but think of the time when he was diagnosing his pulse, the doctor Cao once said with a smile: "It's rare that if someone marries a bride in the future, he can ask the governor to press the bed the night before."

.]

At that time, apart from the Governor and Doctor Cao, he and a soldier were the only ones left in the tent. He and the soldier briefly reacted - what does it mean to ask the Governor to press the bed?

oh!

In many places, before a bride passes through the door, a boy is invited to press the bed...

So... the Governor is supervising him?!

Lieutenant General Yu didn't believe it at first, but when he turned around, he saw the Commander-in-Chief, who also agreed, looking uncomfortable.

At that moment, Lieutenant General Yu couldn't help but stand in awe - not only for the governor who guarded his body like a jade, but also for Doctor Cao, who had superb medical skills.

Therefore, at this moment, when he suddenly heard Doctor Cao uttering the word "happy pulse", Lieutenant General Yu's first reaction was not entirely questioning, but subconsciously thinking carefully... But the answer came to him in a moment. This kind of thing is possible.

What's there to think about?

Where did the boy come from... Bah, where did the man come from?

"This happy pulse is not that happy pulse." Doctor Cao smiled and stroked his beard and said, "The governor's pulse is not stable at this time, but there is joy in the chaos. It can be seen that it is caused by the ups and downs of happy mood."

Lieutenant General Yu was surprised: "Can this be seen from the pulse?"

"This is natural, the pulse can be seen in the heart, and when a person is happy, the heart is free..." Doctor Cao looked at Cui Jing with a smile: "It's rare to see the governor be so cheerful."

Cui Jing: "..."

Having had his pulse checked several times by this person, he had no secrets left in front of his subordinates.

Soon, Doctor Cao and Deputy General Yu were kicked out together.

"Doctor Cao doesn't know something..." After leaving the tent, Lieutenant General Yu put his arm on Doctor Cao's shoulder and whispered: "The Governor always talks little, and he doesn't like others to talk too much. In the future, this will have nothing to do with his injuries or illness.

Don’t say any more irrelevant words in front of the Grand Governor..."

As he spoke, his voice was a little lower: "Next time, just talk to me in private."

Doctor Cao fell into introspection for a moment. What he said was really related to the Governor's injuries, but he would not say much in front of others. When it came to protecting the privacy of the injured, he had very professional ethics...

Every time he told them, they were just trivial and interesting things... Apart from his medical skills, wasn't it his humor that the Governor liked most?

While Doctor Cao was reflecting, he heard Deputy General Yu ask with some worry: "But having said that, our great governor is so easy to lose consciousness, and as soon as he regains consciousness, he seems to be a different person. He is not at all shrewd and wise, and he is willing to risk his life."

You risk everything... In terms of medicine, what kind of disease is this?"

"Is this..." Doctor Cao pondered for a moment: "The same thoughts may have different approaches but similar effects."

"...Sichun crazy?" Vice General Yu said with doubts on his face: "Is it easy to cure?"

Doctor Cao shook his head regretfully.

The two of them walked away while talking. Inside the tent, a young man who had been initially diagnosed with spring madness was writing a letter and replying seriously.

Although he was allowed to write longer, Cui Jing still consciously restrained his writing, and after he had filled two pages of letter paper intermittently, he put down the pen.

Even so, this is the longest letter he has ever written in his life. Of course, the previous useless letters cannot be counted.

After the letter paper was dried, it was sealed in an envelope and put by Cui Jing into a wooden box. There were also folded drawings and other items in the box. Those drawings were either drawn by him or collected by him.

It has taken more than a month.

He thought that this might help her fight against the Japanese.

After closing the box, Cui Jing was handed over to his subordinates and sent to Jiangdu.

…

Master Chu, who was far away in the capital, was finally able to open the letter from the student.

Chang Suining's reply to his teacher was earlier than that to Cui Jing, and the capital was closer to Jiangdu, so Taifu Chu should have read this letter long ago.

Thinking of this, Taifu Chu was filled with resentment - the court was becoming more and more chaotic in invisible places, and officials changed frequently. He was too busy during this period, with too many official duties, and his subordinates were as stupid as novices.

He was bound by this official matter and tied tightly to the Ministry of Rites. He was not even able to return home for many days.

In the past, he made a fuss, and it was of some use, but now it doesn't work anymore. After all, he is not the only one who is about to be driven crazy by official duties.

Seeing that [I'm going to make a fuss] didn't work, the Imperial Tutor had no choice but to go one step further and use the killer move [I'm going to die]. He lay groaning in the Ministry of Rites for half a day.
